Fun climb with one small downside: you can look really far ahead and see how much pain you are going to suffer (if you want to accelerate vigorously). If you just ride up normally, it's enjoyable.... read more

A nice climb in this region. You always get a breather due to flat passages. There is no real summit.

Netter Anstieg in dieser Region. Man bekommt immer wieder Verschnaufpausen wegen flacher Passagen. Einen richtigen Gipfel gibt es nicht.

Fun climb with one small downside: you can look really far ahead and see how much pain you are going to suffer (if you want to accelerate vigorously). If you just ride up normally, it's enjoyable.

Leuke klim met een klein minpuntje: je kunt echt ver vooruit kijken en zien hoeveel pijn je nog gaat lijden (als je flink gas wilt geven). Als je gewoon normaal omhoog rijdt, is het genieten.
